I absolutely disagree about Alexander although maybe I can see Napoleon as a negative entity. Alexander the Great? No way, that man lived for his people and for his Gods.
Now don't get me wrong, I certainly believe Alexander went more than a little crazy, but his life doesn't speak of negative polarization at all to me. Perhaps a fair amount of confusion.
Oh, also, Rasputin wasn't at all "agreeable" to everyone around him and long before he was murdered and even from very early on with his interactions with the Tsars there were many suspicions towards him and many believed he was just manipulating the rulers.
Now Genghis Khan is, to me, an example of an "obvious" one by the admittance of his own words - "For all that I have done, I have not once questioned whether any of it was right."
Edit: IMO.
